Having been to several Machida Shoten in Japan, this brance is so out of place. The broth STINKS of pork, the noodles are inconsistent, and the place is not clean, I had to give up my bowl halfway. That explains why it's emptier than other ramen shops in Thao Dien.

About This Place
Rich, customizable broth with adjustable thickness and noodle firmness makes Machida Shoten one of the more serious ramen options in Thao Dien. The spicy miso and gyoza combo is a solid bet, and there's a chicken broth alternative for non-pork eaters. It's a no-frills Japanese chain — small counter-style seating, quick service, and consistently packed. Prices sit higher than local noodle spots, but the 4.8 rating across 2,300+ reviews suggests most bowls land well.

Chain ramen spot from Japan that is a few blocks walk from the mrt line. Got the spicy miso ramen , with gyoza and soda combo and a small pork fried rice.
The broth is nicely thick and tasty. I used to get the Parmesan ramen all the time, but sadly they don’t make it anymore, and I haven’t found anywhere else in HCM that does. It’s still my favorite ramen spot, and they even have a chicken option if you don’t eat pork. But please bring back the Parmesan ramen 😔
Good Ramen. I don't like the idea of putting bean sprouts but you can just order them not to, over all 4/5
Yeah, it was a good bowl of ramen I guess, but I didn't think it was all that either. Way too pricey to begin with.
